And KFC, which like Pizza Hut is owned by Yum Brands, hopes to double delivery sales at the fried chicken chain to $2 billion by 2020. The prompt for the criticism: constraint on pizza demand that held the company's sales growth to 1% at North American locations open at least a year, versus the 1.4% expected by Wall Street.
